Abstract: A device and method for processing binary program files includes transferring a binary program file in the form of binary data packets over a communication network between a transmission device of a server platform and a reception device of a target platform. The reception device reorders the packets suitable for forming reordered-packet groups. A processor successively analyzes the reordered-packet groups so as to identify portions of code and processes the analyzed packets as soon as a portion of code has been identified.

Abstract: The present invention relates to method of processing binary program files, the method comprising a step of transferring a binary program file (11) in the form of binary data packets over a communication network (13) between a transmission device (12) of a server platform (10) and a reception device (14) of a target platform (18), a step of reordering the packets suitable for forming reordered-packet groups, and a processing step which is suitable for successively analyzing the reordered-packet groups so as to identify portions of code. The downloading of the binary program file, on the one hand, and the processing of the binary program file, on the other hand, are carried out according to a pipeline principle, which consequently makes it possible to process said binary program files more rapidly.
